Abstract:Mitral Annular Displacement (MAD) in echocardiography has been described as a variation in mitral annulus position between the enddiastolic and the end-systolic in a complete cardiac cycle. It could be used as a rapid and reproducible method of determining the LV global systolic function and could be an easily detectable index for wall motion abnormalities. In this study, a computational method of MAD was implemented based on the mitral annulus motion tracking at both sides; namely the lateral side and the sep… Show more
